Hi all, I have created a KIP to replace the Scala Authorizer API with a new Java API:
- https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-504+-+Add+new+Java+Authorizer+Interface This is replacement for KIP-50 which was accepted but never merged. Apart from moving to a Java API consistent with other pluggable interfaces in the broker, KIP-504 also attempts to address known limitations in the authorizer. If you have come across other limitations that you would like to see addressed in the new API, please raise these on the discussion thread so that we can consider those too. All suggestions and feedback are welcome. Thank you, Rajini
